Poll: Alcohol and your reasons...

[ApeShapeDeity]

Well, well.

I'm quite interested to see how many claim not to drink at all. It's certainly not like that amongst my mates. Truth be told, one of mt friends just went home... and I'm in a state I'd call drunk.

I'm not here to judge either way. I'm just interested to see... but bugger I'm definately not sober...

Am I in the mionrity drinking for fun?

Just socially. I've yet to find an alcoholic beverage I like, but it can't help to try. But I think I'm going to stay away from tequila. There seems to be a disease in the family that makes crazy shit happen once it has been consumed.

I clicked i drink to get drunk but the real reason is i'm Irish and we all drink to get drunk here!

 

[TobiasFunke]

It is one of the few things that makes the general public almost tolerable..

Haha too true!

Drink Gin and mix well with 7up and then slightly dilute with some sort of tropical juice- its the best!

It varies. I drink a fine scotch for the flavour; i drink beer to overcome problems if i'm feeling particularly shit.

I've never drunk alcohol besides my parents letting me try some when I was younger. From the taste of it, I have little drive to do it again. But I see nothing wrong with anyone drinking on occasion as long as it's not too much and they make sure they don't do anything dangerous.

I don't drink. I've tried my share of wines, beer and the like but all of them taste terrible. I continue to sample different drinks though, but I've never gotten drunk or had a full drink of anything in my life.

Most of the times it's either life or friends which leads me to the bottle. With the crowd I usually hang out with, more often than not, being drunk gets us in trouble.

And the avatar of the year goes to Wolf-AUS ^_^ thats awesome hahaha.

OT: I love drinking, whenever and wherever I'm doing it. Pub/Club or just relaxing in somebodies house with a few friends and a couple of beers. True too much of it can be a problem but then again too much of anything is bad for you, once you know how much you can handle your set, just go out and enjoy your night!!!

 

[Cheesebob]

I drink because it makes fun more fun and for social stuff. Never too much though.

 

[Thedayrecker]

I don't drink.

It's not my thing

 

[LaffmanAKAJPLaffo]

I'd be a pretty bad member of the straight edge society if I did drink...

 

[KingofallCosmos]

It's a blessing and a curse. If I wasn't on meds, I'd probably go past my 3-4 beers a day. I think this song explains quite well.

 

[IndianaJonny]

Taken a vow against it. Can't say that I'm all that bothered about it, I've seen what alcohol can do to people and it's not impressive.

 

[Communist partisan]

I Love alcohol, specally Sljivovica and Vodka. The problem is that I had hard getting hands on alcohol to forget my problems... so I sniffed glue.

Gogol Bordello, URA!

One of my favorite bands, hehe!

I am a legit alcoholic. It started about ten years ago, just drinking on weekends with my friends, then I started going to bars when I turned 21, which turned into realizing I could drink at home by myself for cheaper. From there it was only drinking on weekends, then the weekdays, then the morning instead of only at night. It's a slippery slope for some people, as both my parents and much of my family are alcoholics. Of the myriad of drugs I've tried in my life, alcohol was the only one that stuck with me.

 

[Death_Korps_Kommissar]

It can be god damn hilarious that's why lol
That, and "you should always try everything once except incest and folk dancing".

 

[Eggsnham]

It's a mixture of the "More fun" and "To get drunk" options.

I'm a teenager, I like to live my youth in blissful ignorance of very real and potential dangers.

I don't drink often though, but when I do, I make sure that it's at the "illegal to drive, but not quite bad enough that you think you can fly" limit.
